Japanese brand Audio-Technica has launched its AT-SP3X powered bookshelf speakers. This latest low cost model is said to deliver rich, full-range audio via a wired or wireless connectivity and are available in a matte black finish. These compact, unobtrusive speakers are an easy solution to pairing with turntables, computers and smartphones either wirelessly over Bluetooth or at line level via its unbalanced RCA stereo input (no phono input).
They feature vented enclosures with 3″ woofers and 1.1″ tweeters which are tuned using the built-in DSP and driven by 40 watts of power.
On/off and volume control are available from a recessed panel on the RHS of the main powered speaker with a small LED indicates that they are active.
Rear panel connectivity on the main powered speaker includes stereo RCA line level input and speaker level output to drive the secondary speaker. The pairing button may also be found on the rear panel that supports a multipoint pairing function allowing users to stay connected to two Bluetooth devices at once. Power is provided by an external universal supply that comes with three international plug adapters.
